Common stock

 

As of October 2, 2016, the outstanding common shares are 8,266,601.

 

On October 31, 2016, Longview Fund L.P. authorized the return to Optex Systems Holdings’ treasury of 197,299 common shares, held by Sileas Corporation in settlement of $155 thousand of accounts receivable due for expenses paid by Optex Systems Inc. on behalf of the Sileas Corporation. The shares were subsequently cancelled in satisfaction of the outstanding accounts receivable balance as of October 31, 2016.

 

On April 27, 2017, the Board of Directors of Optex Systems Holdings approved a purchase of 700,000 shares of its common stock in a private transaction from The Longview Fund, L.P. The transaction was priced at the closing sale price on April 28, 2017 of $0.74 per share for a total transaction amount of $518,000. Upon repurchase on May 1, 2017, the shares were returned to treasury thereby reducing the total shares outstanding of its common stock.

 

During the nine months ending July 2, 2017, Optex Systems Holdings issued 175,000 common shares due to conversions of Series C preferred stock, and 45,799 common shares issued related to the vesting of restricted stock units. There were no other issuances of common or preferred stock during the three months ended July 2, 2017. As of July 2, 2017, the outstanding common shares were 7,590,101.

 

Series A preferred stock

 

Optex Systems Holdings has filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware authorizing a series of preferred stock, under its articles of incorporation, known as “Series A preferred stock”. The Certificate of Designation currently sets forth the following terms for the Series A preferred stock: (i) number of authorized shares: 1,027; (ii) per share stated value: $6,860; (iii) liquidation preference per share: stated value; (iv) conversion price: $1.20 per share, as adjusted from time to time; and (v) voting rights: votes along with the common stock on an as converted basis with one vote per share (vi) par value $0.001 per share. Holders of preferred shares receive preferential rights in the event of liquidation. Additionally the preferred stock shareholders are entitled to vote together with the common stock on an “as-converted” basis. Each share of preferred stock is immediately convertible into common shares at the option of the holder which entitles the holder to receive the equivalent number of common shares equal to the stated value of the preferred shares divided by the conversion price of $1.20 per share pursuant to the August 22, 2016 public offering of common shares at $1.20 per share.

 

There were no issuances of preferred Series A stock during the nine months ended July 2, 2017. As of July 2, 2017 and October 2, 2016 there were zero preferred Series A shares outstanding.

 

Series B Preferred Stock

 

On March 26, 2015, Optex Systems Holdings filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware authorizing a series of preferred stock, under its articles of incorporation, known as “Series B preferred stock”. The Certificate of Designation currently sets forth the following terms for the Series B preferred stock: (i) number of authorized shares: 1,010; (ii) per share stated value: $1,629 (iii) liquidation preference per share, other than Series A preferred stock: stated value; (iv) conversion price: $1.20 per share, as adjusted from time to time; (v) voting rights: votes along with the common stock on an as converted basis with one vote per share; and (vi) par value of $0.001 per share. Each share of preferred stock is immediately convertible into common shares at the option of the holder which entitles the holder to receive the equivalent number of common shares equal to the stated value of the preferred shares divided by the conversion price of $1.20 per share pursuant to the August 22, 2016 public offering of common shares at $1.20 per share.

 

There were no issuances of preferred Series B stock during the nine months ended July 2, 2017. As of October 2, 2016 and July 2, 2017 there were zero preferred Series B shares outstanding.

 

Series C Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors designated 400 shares of our preferred stock as Series C convertible preferred stock (“Series C preferred stock”). The preferences and rights of the Series C preferred stock are set forth in a Certificate of Designation (the “Series C Certificate of Designation”). The Series C Certificate of Designation provides, among other things, that we shall not pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock (other than dividends in the form of Common Stock) unless and until such time as we pay dividends on each Series C preferred share on an as-converted basis. With certain exceptions, as described in the Series C Certificate of Designation, the Series C preferred stock has no voting rights. Each Series C preferred share is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into a number of shares of common stock equal to $5,000 divided by the Series C Conversion Price. The “Series C Conversion Price” is initially $1.20 and is subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, distributions, subdivisions and combinations.

 

During the twelve months ended October 2, 2016 there were 400 preferred Series C shares issued, at a total stated value of $2 million, pursuant to the public offering on August 26, 2016, and conversions of 40 preferred Series C shares, or $200 thousand, into 166,667 common shares. As of October 2, 2016 there were 360 preferred Series C shares outstanding.

 

During the nine months ending July 2, 2017 there were 42 shares of Series C preferred stock converted to 175,000 shares common stock. As of July 2, 2017 there were 318 shares of Series C preferred stock outstanding.

 

Warrants

 

On August 26, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings Inc. issued 4,125,200 warrants to new shareholders and the underwriter, in connection with a public share offering. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.50 per share at any time on or after August 26, 2016 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on August 26, 2021 (the “Termination Date”).

 

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock splits, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend on or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. For one year following the issuance date of the warrants, the exercise price of the warrants will also be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below their exercise price, on the date of issuance of any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any common stock or common stock equivalents, at an effective price per share less than the exercise price then in effect. Under such adjustment, the exercise price of the warrants shall be reduced to that lower issuance price per share. Under the terms of the Warrants, there can only be one such price reset during the term of the warrant.

 

In the event of a fundamental transaction (as defined in warrant), then the Company or any successor entity will pay at the holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with or within 30 days after the consummation of the fundamental transaction, an amount of cash equal to the value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrants on the date of consummation of the fundamental transaction as determined in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model.

 

The Company determined that these warrants are free standing financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the common stock included in the public share offering. Management also determined that the warrants are puttable for cash upon a fundamental transaction at the option of the holder and as such require classification as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. In accordance with the accounting guidance, the outstanding warrants are recognized as a warrant liability on the balance sheet. See Note 7 “Warrant Liabilities”.

 

During the three months ending July 2, 2017 and the twelve months ending October 2, 2016, zero warrants had been exercised. As of July 2, 2017 and October 2, 2016 the outstanding warrants were 4,125,200.

 

Dividends

 

On June 26, 2017, the board of directors approved a resolution authorizing a $0.02 per share (and per warrant) dividend payment in July for common and preferred C shareholders and warrant holders of record on July 5, 2017 and for three subsequent quarterly record dates thereafter. During the three and nine months ending July 2, 2017, Optex Systems Holdings recorded dividends payable and a retained earnings adjustment for declared dividends of $261 thousand for dividends payable in July.
